Lyrics The Veronicas

The Veronicas

Born Bob Dylan

If I don't say anything it's wrong

If I said it wouldn't come out right

It's been keeping me up all night

Half my life I've been told to shut up

So how am I gonna open up?

Wish you could just read my mind

If I shared all of me

Would you run away?

If I sugarcode what I had to say in poetry

Would it make you stay?

I wish I was born bob dylan

Had all the words to speak my feelings

I wish I stood up like rosa parks

And follow my heart and free the truth

Even if I stood alone

I didn't know how it was gonna go

Even if the water was cold

I'd take a deep breath and get it off my chest

I wish I was born bob dylan

I wish I was born bob dylan

I wish I was born bob dylan

I wish I was born bob dylan

I wish I was born bob dylan

I wish I was born bob dylan

They say either way you win

If you're feeling it right gotta hold it in

What is meant to be will be

But all the wisdom doesn't help me now

I'm scared and I gotta find out how to speak my mind

If metaphors are rosen

I'm still making mine

I hope you know what I mean when I'm mad at me

Cause I don't see what I'm in when I'm caught in between

I'm afraid the real you is alluring me

I wish I was born bob dylan

Had all the words to speak my feelings

I wish I stood up like rosa parks

And follow my heart and free the truth

Even if I stood alone

I didn't know how it was gonna go

Even if the water was cold

I'd take a deep breath and get it off my chest

I wish I was born bob dylan

I wish I was born bob dylan

I wish I was born bob dylan

With you I'm ripped wide open at the seams

I'm not that tough

But you could hear the song inside of me

But it's not enough

All the things I wanna say to you

Read it on my face

I wish I was born bob dylan

Had all the words to speak my feelings

I wish I stood up like rosa parks

And follow my heart and free the truth

Even if I stood alone

I didn't know how it was gonna go

Even if the water was cold

I'd take a deep breath and get it off my chest

I wish I was born bob dylan

Even if I stood alone

Didn't know how it was gonna go

Gotta get it off my chest

And hope for the best

I wish I was born bob dylan

I wish I was born bob dylan

I wish I was born bob dylan

I wish I was born bob dylan

I wish I was born bob dylan

I wish I was born bob dylan

I wish I was born bob dylan

I wish I was born bob dylan

I wish I was born bob dylan

I wish I was born bob dylan

I wish I was born bob dylan
